Semua Bab Betrayed Love: Stuck Between the Billionaires : Bab 41 - Bab 50

BrienneHer words were like icy water slipping into my veins. I whipped my head back to her, seeing her open face.She knew everything? How? My mind raced as I gauged what to say next.“I have no idea what you're talking about.” I bit out, trying to pretend.“Don't lie,” she bit back, “it's not that hard to tell. An anonymous tip? Really?”“There are only a few people who know that much information about my life and there's only one who has threatened me. You're the only person I know who could have done this.”‘What the…’ I stood stunned.Disbelief filled me as she glared. Everything she said was true, but none of it was any actual proof. Just her deductions.She didn't even mention HIM. “Is that all you know?” My tone was sarcastic but I internally gauged her, trying to hide my suspicion and fear.The slight hesitation on her face told me all I needed to know. She quickly raised her chin in a mask of confidence.“I need to hear it from you,” she said, “Viktor confirmed my suspicion

BrienneTHREE DAYS LATER: Humming to myself, I looked at the two earrings. Gold or opal? Which was I going to wear today?After seconds of contemplation, I sighed annoyed. Had Julienne been here, perhaps she would have given a good suggestion. For all the trash she came from, she at least had a less than mediocre taste.After a few seconds, I looked at my two choices once more and picked up the gold. It felt a bit gaudy for my tastes, but what did it matter? There was nothing wrong with looking a bit gaudy for a special occasion, and this was most certainly a special occasion.Today was the day of the announcement. I wasn't excited for the event as to what it meant. Helping Viktor and raising the reputation of the company was only a plus side compared to the joy of getting retribution for her and that fiancee of hers embarrassing me, but I was excited for a completely different reason.Because with the announcement there would be a second announcement; one of the fixed date of our we

Eva If there was anything I'd learned in business, it was that there always had to be a good story. That was exactly what I was going to start with. “Six years ago,I was still with Viktor Reynolds. We met in college and we were college sweethearts, our relationship lasting past college. Back then I had nothing, but he made me feel like the happiest girl in the world.” Despite my words I spoke in an indifferent tone, as if I was talking about stocks instead of my past. If looks could kill, I was sure Brienne would have had me cremated by now. I knew I was agitating her. “I had nobody until he came, and so I was introduced to two of his best friends who became mine. I got familiar with them and for the first time in a long time, it felt like I had a family.” “I trusted them with everything like a fool, unknown to the scheme they played against me.” “Those two people are Brienne Harrison, Me Reynolds current fiancee and Geoffrey Wells. Both are here today.” Gasps and murmur

Eva Present day It seemed in the end I wasn't really on my own. I had almost lost all hope. Who would have known that the night before with tears in my eyes and dried mascara on my face, she would call? In the middle of the night, cleaning my tears and cooling the stinks on my cheek, I received a call from an unknown number. As I answered mindlessly, I only heard her voice and two words. “I'm in.” What changed between then and that day, two days ago was a mystery to me. Perhaps she'd come to terms with what I'd said or maybe something else pushed her to that decision either way she was here now and I could feel her seething. Pure anger and hatred emanated from her as she stared forward, no doubt at Brienne herself. I didn't bother looking at Brienne's face to know how shocked she was. ‘Are you ready?’ I silently asked with my eyes, She took her place near the fixed micro I was using only moments ago and spoke.e “Some of you may remember me. I was one of Brienne's “ f

Eva"He was everything I wanted. All that money, that influence. id waited for him for so long and then you took him. You, a nobody."Another sob left me in the video. I was aware of the sting of alcohol in her breath when she'd neared me back then. Hearing her clearer now, there was no doubt in me that the alcohol had loosened her lips. Just in time, Brienne bursted into hysterical giggles, a sign of her addled state. “You can scream and cry and protest all you want, but now all people would think if you as is a lying cheating gold digger. History really does repeat itself doesn't it?” She spoke in-between laughter.After several minutes, the sounds lowered into silence, only the faint sound of my whimpers present until she spoke.“The first time was for you standing in the way of what I wanted. This is what you deserve for embarrassing me on my engagement party. You with your empty threats and holier than thou act. What can you do about it? Your boyfriend has left you and your rep
